Fans Are Furious About Nika Muhl's WNBA Debut Against Caitlin Clark
The Seattle Storm currently have a commanding lead over the Indiana Fever, in the two team's first matchup of the 2024 WNBA season.
The Storm are dominating the Fever in the paint, having already amassed 7 blocks against Indiana with about half of the third quarter still remaining.
Storm guard Jewell Loyd has been the best player on the court. She already has 24 points, and can't seem to make a mistake.
Caitlin Clark, on the other hand, has struggled to score, only having scored 8 points so far with 1 three pointer.
Which is surprising, considering the lack of Nika Muhl there has been for the Storm.

Muhl, who made a name for herself by being Clark's kryptonite during their time in college, hasn't checked in to the game yet.
And fans aren't happy about the lack of Muhl.
"Everyone waiting for Nika Mühl to check in," one X user wrote.
"We have freed Nika Mühl but it seems like she’s been put on house arrest (the bench) #NikaMuhl #wnba #SeattleStorm," wrote another.
Update: Muhl finally checked in to the game in the third quarter, and played a few minutes. Although fans are wishing her debut occurred earlier.
